there was no party, there was no big celebration, there was no annoying horrible family ruining it like... the OTHER time, that got my aunt permanently banned from ever visiting or contacting us again... it was just me, my dad, and my brother, just going out to our hangout spots and having simple fun with the little things. together. nothing extravagant, just with the small and only bit that I really call family. there was no gifts, there was no horrible traditional happy birthday song, just me and my dad saying "happy birthday" to eachother back and forth like a million times like we always do...

and he is the funniest person to just exist around, honestly. it hurts with how much he makes me laugh, especially with our recurring in-family-only jokes

got to listen to good music while we were driving, too

I got to hear Shout, Head Over Heels, Everybody Wants to Rule the World, and then I myself specifically played Mother's Talk by Tears For Fears, and then a lot of the other music was Oingo Boingo. another thing that I enjoy so dearly, how it seems that oingo boingo has brought us together even more..

looking at the pictures of me and my dad together from tonight, god I've gotten tall??? I know I'm almost at my dad's height but I seem taller in the picture. like. is. is that how I look?? crazy

aannd ending the day i am very, very happy

happy birthday to the birthday duo!!! two is better than one <3
